Here are some expert opinions on the document that has the potential to change India’s education domain in a big way...
A MOMENT OF RECKONING FOR INDIA’S FUTURE
The Union Ministry of Human Resource Development has put the Draft National Education Policy (NEP) 2019 in the public domain and citizens can give feed-back and suggestions till the end of July. Let’s take a look at the salient features of the Draft that has received 50,000 responses so far.
The Draft NEP was among the first few key policy documents taken up by the Modi Government 2.0 as soon as it resumed office, thus giving a hint of the government’s priority. The Draft proposes some big-ticket reforms for overhauling the education system. The new policy, which will replace the Education Policy of 1986, has to address the new challenges and opportunities, keeping global outlook and the huge demographic dividend India has right now at its centre.
The Draft has elicited some positive reviews for suggesting a wholesale overhaul of the system. There is unanimity among all the stakeholders that country needs a new Education Policy, however, opinions are still divided over some of the approaches suggested in the Draft.
